Item Gynaecological Laparoscopic Surgeries: A 4- Year audit at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Nigeria(Society of Gynaecology and Obstetrics of Nigeria, 2017) Omokanye, Lukman O.; Olatinwo, Abdulwaheed O.; Ibrahim, S; Durowade, K.A.; Biliaminu, S.A.; Abdul, I.F.Background: In addition to a shorter hospital stay and better cosmetic results, laparoscopic surgery also offers patients fewer postoperative complications compared to conventional open gynecological surgeries. With expertise and better facilities, it has come to stay as an alternative surgical approach to gynecological diagnosis and treatment. Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the indications, intraoperative findings, and types of laparoscopic surgeries performed at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin. Materials and Methods: A retrospective observational study of 150 patients who underwent laparoscopic procedures between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2015, at the Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART) unit of the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH), Ilorin, Nigeria. Results: Within the period of our review, there were 1,256 gynecological operations and 150 laparoscopies, thus giving a period prevalence of 11.2%. The patients were aged 20–59 years with a mean age of 32.1 ± 3.9 years. Of the 150 laparoscopies, 30 (20%) had diagnostic laparoscopies while 120 (80%) had therapeutic laparoscopies. Of the 30 patients who had diagnostic laparoscopies, 5 (16.7%) presented with primary infertility and 12 (40%) with secondary infertility. The commonest indication for therapeutic laparoscopy was clomiphene‑resistant polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and was found in 81 (67.5%). One (0.7%) was converted to open surgery due to technical difficulties. There was a case of iatrogenic sigmoid colon injury and no mortality recorded. Conclusion: Laparoscopic surgery offers patients a novel choice of intervention that affords establishing definitive diagnosis, shorter hospital stay, better cosmetics, and reduced morbidities/mortalities compared to open gynecological surgeries.Item HIV and pregnancy: prevention of mother-to-child transmission(Maternity hospital wing university of ilorin, teaching hospital ilorin, kwara state, 2014) Abdul, I.F.Item Menopause perception and care of menopausal women in Nigeria(Nigeria journal of guidance and counselling, 2011) Saka, M.

Among the identified etiological factors for infertility, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age that impact on ovulation and conception. Aims and Objectives: The objective of this study was to determine pregnancy outcome following the various modalities of management of PCOS at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH). Materials and Methods: This is a nonrandomized (nonblinded) clinical trial of five therapeutic options for infertile women with PCOS from the Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) Clinic and Gynaecology Clinic of UITH between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2013. Results: Of 624 infertile women who presented at ART and general gynecology clinic of UITH, 76 met the Rotterdam criteria for PCOS, giving a prevalence rate of 12.2%. The patients aged 20–44 years with a mean age of 31.5 years. Most 49 (64.5%) of the patients were nulliparous, and more than half (56.6%) belong to the middle social class. Thirty‑four (44.8%) were obese while 22 (28.9%) were overweight. Of the various management options, 48.7% had laparoscopic ovarian drilling; other treatment options offered were the use of clomiphene citrate (CC) alone, CC with metformin, weight reduction, and gonadotropin. Patients were followed‑up within 6–12 months (mean 5.5 ± 1.2 months) following the initial treatment for evidence of laboratory/clinical pregnancy. An overall pregnancy rate of 46.0% was recorded. However, a total of 13 (17.1%) were lost to follow‑up. The highest pregnancy rate (75%) was reported in women managed with CC alone (P = 0.229). Conclusion: PCOS occurs commonly in reproductive age and management outcomes are promising in Nigeria. CC, metformin, and laparoscopic ovarian drilling are of great benefit. Further studies on PCOS in low resource countries are needed.Item Polycystic ovarian syndrome: Analysis of management outcomes among infertile womn at a public health institution in Nigeria(The Nigeria journal of general practice, 2015) Omokenye, L.O.; Ibiwoye-Jaiyeola, O .A.; Olatinwo, A.W.O.; Abdul, I.F.; Durowade, K.A.; Billiaminu, S.A.Item Premature rupture of membranes: A review(Sahel medical journal, 2001) Anate, M.; Latinwo, A.W.O; Abdul, I.F.Item : Prevalence of surgical site nosocomial infection in tertiary health care institution in Nigeria(Seiknow publication Ltd, 2013) Atata, R.

Objective: To compare the serum levels of calcium, magnesium, and uric acid in mild preeclamptics, severe preeclamptics, and normal pregnant women. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH) Ilorin. The data were collected from 64 normal pregnant women, 64 mild preeclamptic women, and 64 severe preeclamptic women who presented at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, UITH between June 2013 and January 2014. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance. Results: The mean serum calcium concentration in severe preeclamptics and mild preeclamptics was signifi cantly reduced (1.75 ± 0.63 mmol/L and 1.90 ± 0.44 mmol/L vs. 2.28 ± 0.24 mmol/L, P = 0.00) compared with serum calcium concentration in normal pregnant controls. The serum magnesium concentration among severe preeclamptics was also signifi cantly reduced (0.84 ± 0.44 mmol/L versus 1.05 ± 0.28 mmol/L, P = 0.00) compared with serum magnesium among normal pregnant controls. However, there was no statistically signifi cant difference in serum magnesium concentration between mild preeclamptic women and normal pregnant women (1.01 ± 0.26 mmol/L vs. 1.05 ± 0.28 mmol/L). The serum uric acid concentration was signifi cantly elevated among both mild and severe preeclamptic women compared with the serum uric acid concentration among normal pregnant control (0.89 ± 0.63 mmol/L and 1.25 ± 0.68 mmo/L vs. 0.21 ± 0.19 mmol/L). Conclusions: It is concluded that while reduced serum calcium levels and elevated serum uric acid levels correlate with etiopathogenesis of preeclampsia, reduced serum magnesium correlates with severity of preeclampsia.
